MIN 7, MIA 4: Ninth inning rally falls short, Berríos’ dominant outing silences Marlin hitters

MIAMI—On a day teeming with never-ending updates surrounding the July 31 trade deadline, two All-Star pitchers went head-to-head at Marlins Park in what was foreseen to be an electric pitchers’ duel. Following a night with only eight hits and three runs combined between both the Twins and the Marlins, José Berríos and Sandy Alcántara both took the mound for their respective teams in hopes of replicating that narrative.

However, the second contest of this three-game interleague series would prove to be far different from the first, and for nearly its entirety, the Twins utterly dominated the Marlins.
